Sirius and Lupin have reported all the information they know, but there are still many doubts and unknowns.

Professor Dumbledore felt a headache and rubbed his temples.

"Fawkes." In desperation, Professor Dumbledore looked up at the little phoenix who was still combing its feathers on the shelf,

"Do me a favor and get that book out."

Fawkes let out a low cry of dissatisfaction, but obediently spat out a golden-red flame.

The flames swirled in front of Professor Dumbledore and slowly dissipated.

Out of the flames was a heavy book with a pure white cover, with no writing written on the cover.

Professor Dumbledore pulled out his wand and tapped lightly on the cover of the book.

The book opened automatically and flipped quickly. The book has this name on every page, and a mark underneath.

These are all sigils that symbolize a master magician or a member of the Order of the Phoenix, and are inspired by Lord Voldemort's Dark Mark mark.

It's just that Professor Dumbledore certainly doesn't choose to imprint these marks on his body, but to modify them and solidify them in books.

Eventually, the book was opened and rested on a page that was further back, with a black, sloppy-looking mark on it.

Professor Dumbledore tapped the black mark with his wand and asked aloud, "Are you there, Mundungus?" ”

A moment later, a white glow flashed on the marker, and then began to emit a continuous glow.

A greasy but respectful voice sounded:

"Headmaster, I'm here. Is there anything you can help me with? ”

"Do you have time now?" Professor Dumbledore asked, "Hmm...... At least one day of free time. ”

"Huh? Well...... There should be...... Please wait a minute......"

There was a slightly flustered, clanging sound from the mark, accompanied by a few shouts and curses.

But then, the greasy voice from earlier rang out:

"Fuck off! You filthy ghouls! Greedy dead bugs! Pigs raised by the French! Don't have any eyesight? Lao Tzu is closed today! ”

"He's M, Monton, how dare you talk to Lao Tzu like that? Do you want to die? Don't think I don't know your crucible and potion materials......"

Another slightly manic voice rang out, and before the words could be finished, the light on the imprint suddenly dissipated and became extremely dim.

Professor Dumbledore didn't say much, just interlocked his fingers and waited patiently, obviously familiar with the scene.

"Looks like Montungus is tinkering with the bad stuff again." Sirius complained to Lupin.

"Don't say that, he's not done it once or twice anyway," Lupin frowned,

"And he's our companion, and Professor Dumbledore needs his help."

"If Professor Dumbledore doesn't say anything, let's leave it alone."

"I don't mean anything else." Sirius spread his hands, "I also work with him." ”

"Where do you think I got the potion materials that Harley needed?"

"Mature poisonous tentacles and sun-dried mandrakes are high-risk contraband, and only those with their heads pinned to their belts can get their hands on them."

"I'm a guy who has just been released from prison, and I'm not a snotty person, and I don't have so many ways, don't I rely on Mondongues to help me?"

Lupin didn't speak, just glared at him.

After about five minutes, the sigil reopened.

"Headmaster, I've taken care of everything!"

Montungus's voice was still so respectful, not at all as rough as when he spoke to others before,

"Command! Whatever it takes, Mundungus is up for it! ”

"It doesn't have to be, your first priority is to keep yourself safe."

Professor Dumbledore didn't ask about what had happened before, and expressed enough trust in Mundungus,

"I'm looking for you today, just to ask you for a favor."

"You know, Lupin had been staying in the werewolf colony that Greyback had founded, and he was ...... for me."

Seeing the two chatting, Sirius lowered his head again and played with the empty pumpkin juice bottle in his hand in boredom.

There was a knock on the door of the Headmaster's office, followed by the voices of Hallie and Professor McGonagall.

Sirius jumped up directly: "Headmaster, you are busy first." We won't bother you. ”

Lupin's face was similarly happy, but he grabbed Sirius, who was about to run out of the Headmaster's office, and looked at Professor Dumbledore.

It wasn't until Professor Dumbledore nodded at the two of them while admonishing Mondigus that Sirius and Lupin left the room without stopping.

Outside the Headmaster's office, Hallie and Hermione were chatting with Professor McGonagall.

Upon seeing Sirius and Lupin emerge from the principal's office, Hallie goes up and gives the godfather and Uncle Remus a hug.

Professor McGonagall walked away silently, not disturbing the reunion of her loved ones.

"Hallie, how's the third project going?" On the way to the Great Hall, Sirius asked with concern.

"What do you think?" Hallie rolled her eyes at her godfather unceremoniously,

"If nothing else, do you think there's a problem with measuring the magic I showed at the Quidditch World Cup in England?"

Sirius touched his head and nodded vigorously, "That's really fine......

The four of them walked and talked, talking about topics from the first two events of the Six F.A. to the Santa Ball, and then to the warriors of the other magic schools.

After going around and around, the conversation finally came to Sirius and Lupin.

Sirius didn't mind telling Harley about all the investigations they had done during the time, including the werewolves and the dark wizards.

Although this is information that needs to be kept secret, Sirius is also very secretive in most cases.

But in Sirius's mind, all the work he did was to deal with Voldemort, who was gathering strength and was about to return.

And Harley, as the child who never died at the beginning, will naturally be on the front line of the fight against Voldemort like her parents, Jaime and Lily.

In addition, Harley's own magical attainments are far superior to herself, and even the entire Order of the Phoenix does not have many people who can match her.

Therefore, as long as it is a job related to the Order of the Phoenix, Sirius will basically choose to tell Harley unconditionally.

Lupin frowned, but didn't say much.

Harley and Hermione wandered around Hogwarts for less than thirty minutes before the four of them wandered into the Room of Requirement.

After all, everyone is bored with this kind of visit.

Although many people have never been able to return after graduating from Hogwarts, they miss the seven years of school very much.

But Professor Lupin had just been teaching Defence Against the Dark Arts for a year here, and Sirius had taken a good look at his long-lost castle during last Christmas.

So the two of them are not quite like other adult wizards, and they are more familiar with most of the current environment here.

Instead of spending time visiting the castle you're familiar with, why not help Harley prepare for the third event of the Six F.Y. Tournament.

Of course, he said he was helping Harley with her preparations, but in fact it was not.

Sirius happily draws his wand and asks for a one-on-one battle with Harley to test her fighting skills.

And then...... And he was hanged.

Harley, who wanted to save face for her godfather, only took less than thirty seconds to hang Sirius from the ceiling, and she was still very confused.

Harley didn't feel like she was using any powerful magic, she didn't use extraordinary abilities, and the spells she used wouldn't be stronger than Sequence Five.

How could Sirius lose so quickly?

Sirius single-handedly made Harley unconfident.

Harley seriously suspected that her control of her power had decreased, and she could not control the output of her strength well.

She even froze in place for a minute, quickly and carefully examining herself.

After all, it is very likely that she will have a ritual tonight, take potions, and be promoted to the second stage of the calamity witch.

If your condition is declining and you are not at your best, it is likely to cause problems with the ritual.

So Hallie has to keep track of her status at all times to avoid accidents.

Soon, however, Harley ruled out the possibility of a diminished control of her power. After all, she's in too good shape.

“…… So...... Is Sirius too vegetable? ”

Harley couldn't help but look at Sirius, who was still tied up in two chains on the ceiling.

Excluding all impossibilities, this can only be the truth.

At this time, Sirius's eyes also met Harley's eyes, and all four eyes were full of embarrassment.

"What do you see? Put me down! Sirius couldn't help but whisper.

After all, he was easily beaten by his young goddaughter, and there were his goddaughter's girlfriends who had too close relationships and his old friends watching.

Although Sirius is used to being cheeky every day, he really can't stand it.

Only then did Harley realize that she seemed to have hung Sirius for more than a minute.

With a wave of her wand, the chains vanished, and Sirius landed smoothly in a gust of wind.

With his feet on the ground again, Sirius's body shook, but he still stood stubbornly on the ground.

He rubbed his hands and raised his wand at Hallie again, "Come again!" I was careless, let's have another round! ”

After all, Sirius was definitely not convinced by this result. In short, today is to get back this face!

And then...... Sirius was defeated by Harley seven times in a row, and was directly captured by Seven.

Lupin on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and dragged Sirius down: "Sirius, your state today is too bad, let me come." ”

And Sirius has also been beaten up at this time to doubt his life. The old friend gave himself a step, and Sirius hurriedly jumped down the slope:

"Indeed, Remus, I was in terrible form today. It's better for you to get on! ”

Harley played with her wand and whistled as Sirius glared at her goddaughter viciously.

Lupin's level was significantly higher than Sirius's, and at least he was able to hold on to Hallie's hands for three minutes while he was in a dewatered state by magic alone.

And when Hallie estimated that she had saved enough face for Uncle Remus and was about to end the battle, Lupin even took out a unique skill to press the bottom of the box-

He roared on the spot and turned into a werewolf!

This surprised Harley, and the witch's extraordinary abilities were directly used.

Originally, Lupin couldn't bear Hallie's endless and subtle magic, and he was all friends or juniors who knew him well.

So he wants to fight with the ability to press the bottom of the box, at least not to lose so fast.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he became a werewolf, he was tied up into a huge cocoon by spider silk.

"Okay, okay, I'm throwing in the towel."

Seeing that Harley was full of vigilance and walked over with a wand, Lupin hurriedly withdrew from the werewolf state.

The hair on his face quickly vanished, returning to his familiar face.

"Professor, what's going on?"

Hermione, who was on the side, was also taken aback by Lupin's werewolfization, and subconsciously pulled out her wand.

"The werewolf of Remus? That's a long story. ”

Sirius said with his hands in his pockets, leaning against the wall, and grinning.

"That's a long story short!" Harley gave her godfather a roll of the eye, but Sirius pretended not to see it.

It was Lupin who quickly explained.

According to him, when he went to the cave to look for the body of Regulus, he began to change dramatically after he turned into a werewolf.

According to Lupin's experiments, from then on, he could become a werewolf at any time if he wanted to, and he would not lose his reason yet.

In Lupin's eyes, this is a good thing.

After all, werewolves can bring themselves not weak magic resistance, greatly improve their physical fitness, and also remove the debuff in the full moon state.

At the same time, he didn't have to ask Sirius to pay for him to buy the ingredients for the wolf poison potion every time.

What's more, he won't need to rely on Snape to help him brew the wolf poison potion, and he won't have to listen to Snape's yin and yang weirdness.

This is a triple happiness for Lupin!

Professor Dumbledore also helped Lupin check his body, but found nothing, and in the end he could only attribute it to the power of magic.

However, Harley had multiple guesses at this moment, and secretly frowned.

She felt that she needed to prepare some special gifts for Uncle Remus, such as a necklace with certain words on it.

After all, Lupin's current state is like a mutilated and extraordinary nature of the xenopath, which has been deliberately supplemented and made complete by the intervention of some great being.

As for this great being......

It could only be the powerful old day hanging high in the astral plane, the father of demons, the lord of aliens, the source of the curse, the mother tree of desire, the god of heartlessness, the eternal roarer, the powerful evil god that the Rose School of the Western Continent once believed in-

Mother Tree of Desire.

For this evil god, Harley naturally has a lot of vigilance.

Although it is said that in order to survive now, in order not to be completely devoured or take away part of the essena and pathways in the body, the Mother Tree of Desire temporarily stands in the same camp as herself.

But who can guarantee that these inhuman beings will not suddenly take control of themselves or their relatives behind their backs?

Harley thought it better to be on guard.
